Abdominal Contour in the Third Trimester—an Aid to Diagnosis of Uterine Anomalies

JAMES P. SEMMENS, CAPT., (MC), USN, F.A.C.O.G.

From the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, U. S. Naval Hospital, Naval Aviation Medical Center, Pensacola, Fla.

  1. SUMMARYThe physical signs suggested as an aid to the diagnosis of uterine anomalies in the gravid patient are valid and more than 90% accurate.
  2. Uterine anomalies of major and minor degrees are present in 8–10% of our obstetric population.
  3. Obstetric complications are associated with minor, as well as major anomalies and warrant the segregation of this group. Renal complications, premature labor, and blood loss are of principal concern.
  4. Special care in management prenatally, at delivery, and in the immediate postpartum period is necessary.
